ASSAULTED TWO SISTERS.
One of Them Plants a Bullet
Near the Heart of Her
ASsailant.

Utica, n. Y, August 3.-The Misses
Alice and Sarah Chsmplain, about forty
years old, run farm between this city and
Whitesboro. For nearly seven years David
HI. Jones, aged thirty-fve, has been en-
ployed by them and proved very steady
and faithful until recently, when he began
to drink. The women consulted their
neighbors about the change in the mans
habits, and were advised to discharge him.
This they hesitated about doing, fearing be
would set fire to some of the farm build
ings.
About $50 O'Clock last evening Miss
Alice returned home from an errard and
found her sister absent. Shortly sfterward
she heard scuffie in the back yard, and on
going out found Jones attempting to assault
Sarah. Alice struck him over the head
with her parasol and finally with board.
Jones, who was intoxicated, left Sarah and
chased Alice into the house, where he
caught her and threw her upon a sofa,
under the pillow of which revolver was
kept. Alice, being almost overpowered,
reached for the weapon and shot her assail-
ans in the left breast, near the heart.
Physicians say the wound is not necessarily
fatal. Miss Champlain is at home in
charge of deputy sheriff. She is greatly

ANOTHER HOPKIRK CASE.
A Boy Fiend Released on Tech
nicalitieS.

Jefferson City, Mo-, August 4-Daniel
Moore, who was convicted of murder in
the first degree last September in Webster
county, and sentenced TO forty years in
the penitentiary, went out of the prison
yesterday through the same legal loophole
which freed Frank Hopkirk about year
ago. At the time of his conviction and
sentence Moore was only IL years of age.
Soon after his incarceration his parents,
who lived in indianapolis, Ind, placed
the case in the hands of F. E. Luckett,
who, after spending several months care
fully collecting evidence as to Moore's age,
went to Webster county and at the May
term presented the facts and secured an or
der vacating the sentence.
Nothing further was done until yester-
day, when on a writ of habeas corpus
Judge +. l.. Edwards, of the Cole county
circuit court, after hearing the matter, Or
dered the discharge of the prisoner.
The murder was cold-blooded. Moore
Was tramp, and with a fellow tramp
struck Marshfeld, Webster county, one
day last August. The next day they were
walking down the track of the ST. Louis
and San Francisco railroad when Moore
deliberately drew pistol and blew his
partners brains out. He left the body on
the railroad track where ii was alters ards
found, horribly mutilated by a train.
The crime was easily fastened upon Moore,
and his arrest and conviction followed. No
motive was assigned for the murder but a
fiendish desire to take human life.

A Foolish Girls Escape.

Vicennes, Ind, August "a most pc
culiar and sensational elopement story
comes from the northern part of Sullivan
County. Mr.. James Carrithers, a young
man of wealthy parentage, eloped with
Miss Stella Brown. All the parties lived
in the same neighborhood. Miss Brown
escaped the vigilance of her parents by al
leging that she wanted to visit her sister

her home. Instead of that she went from
Sullivan and thence to Robinson, ILL.,

Willow Hill, ILL.,, and when there he want,

would be sure to meet her.
Carrither did not not put in an appear

CHER there with instructions to take her to
St. Louis. In the latter place Hangher
planned to 60 on to Denver, Col, but Car

greatly mysti6ed by the strange con-
duct.

Illinois ku-KluX on the War
Path

Harrisburg, ILL.,, August 4-Persons who
have Just returned from the interior OF
Hardin county report that the Ku-klu1
gang are preparing for another onslaught
on the people of that section. Since the
James Belt assassination OF last week
County Judge Hess, Logan Belts wife and
a number of others have received written
notices to leave the country. The people
are terrified, and many are leaving without
receiving the orders which have been sent
to 50 many. The gang is beginning to
warn people OF other counties to get out OF
Southern Illinois. Among these are friends
of the late Logan and James Belt, who
lived in the neighboring county OF Gala
tin. Not less than eight others who had
received these notices have been waylaid
and killed. A meeting of the citizens of
the county is called for August 6, to devise
means to ferret out the murderous mystic
ries. The gang is somewhat of the order OF
the Bald Knobbers. and is getting holder
with each successive crime. Earl Sher-
wood, one of the persons warned to leave
Elizabethtown, has taken up his residence
here for fear his life will be taken.

The managers of the fair grow
happier every day over the prospects
presented, and are positive in their
belief that this year will witness a
boom in this direction, which will sur
pass anything of the kind ever before
witnessed here. Fair weather is all
that is needed, and because the storm
period will not yet have been reached,
fair weather may reasonably be count
ed on. The procession, as will be
seen in another column, is to be a
thing of beauty, and our neighbors
cannot afford to miss it.

GUIrEAU'S ANATHEMA.
Remarkable Succession of Mis-
fortunes That Have Fol-
lowed His whitening
Curse.

Washington, August 2.-After the assaS-
sin Guiteau had been convicted and sem
fenced by the court to be hanged for kill
ing President Garfield, he stood up In his
place and pronounced whitening curse on
every one connected with the trial. Little
was thought of il at the time. 1t was re-
garded as fitting climax of his rawlings
throughout that remarkable case. Gui-
teau declared that misfortune would at
tend every one connected with his trial.
Since then Guiteau's curse has impressed
itself upon the minds of superstitiOus peo-
pie by the singular manner in which it
has apparently been fulfilled.
The jury was composed OF twelve strong
and healthy men. The foreman was in
comfortable circumstances and was esti-
mated to be worth $4,000. Within year
after the trial he lost his money and is
now reduced to the level of day laborer.
Four members of the jury are dead, and
nearly every one has been visited with
some kind of misfortune.
District.Attorney George B Carkhill
was removed from Office, and his wife died
and his own death followed before the end
of another year.
Mr.. Scoville, Guiteau's brother-in.law,
who with Chas. HI. Reed defended the pris-
oner, was divorced from his wife and lost
all his property.
President Arthur, who refused to grant
pardon or new trial to Guiteau, was de-
feated for denomination and slowly failed
In health, and died last winter.
Mr.. Blaine, who was a witness against
Guiteau, Was nominated for President, but
defeated
John A. Logan, another wituess, is now
dead, stricken down In apparent health.
DR.. ID. w. Bliss, Gar6eld's physician,
has been in very poor health for two years:
and it is thought he will never be well
man agnin.
David Davis, who appeared as witness,
has also Joined the great majority.
Judge John K. Porter, of New York
one of the Government council in the case,
has practically retired from the practice
of his profession.
The guards who kept watch over
Guiteau in Jail, have nearly all lost their
positions.
Judge Cox, who presided over the trial
lost his wife. ,
The downward career of Charles II.
Reed, of Guitesu's counsel, which culmi-
mated in New York this morning by his
attempting to take his own life, adds an
other name to the list of victims of Gui-
teau's anathema.
The only conspicuous exception is found
in Walter Davidge, of the government
counsel in the case. Mr.. Davidge has APP
parently been more prosperous since the
trial than before. He stands at the head
of the Washington Bar.
The defeat Of the Republican party in
1884 recalls the fact thaf Guiteau predicted
its defeat.

Southern Wealth.
New Orleans States.

A Georgia paper speaking of the
matter of running southern man on
the Democratic ticket with Cleveland,
expresses the belief that such a step
just now would not be judicious. The
day is not far distant, however, when
the power of the south will be felt in
the National Democratic convention,
and instead of second place she will
demand and get the first. 1t has been
suggested that time will placate the
north, but there is something that will
placate it much quicker than time
and that is southern wealth, and the
Golfers of the south are now rapidly
filling up to the top. .lrnr.
